The TRIGUNAS & TRIDOSHAS

The Elemental Composition of Matter

The Sanskrit term Guna means Quality. Guna is the fundamental feature of Nature. Guna, when it comes to human life, is extremely important because your characteristics are thoroughly influenced by Gunas. Karma is the real asset you make out of a Simulated Life span. Karma shapes the Vibratory Frequency of your Soul, and the Elemental Composition of your body is done according to the frequency level, you maintain from a previous Birth Cycle. This is how your Soul gets qualified to choose the Zodiac Sign and your next birth cycle of evolution. It's your Zodiac Sign that actually fixes your basic Guna. But you are powerful enough to nullify the effects of your Gunas through the actual employment of your Free Will and Consciousness. There are there types of basic Gunas namely The Sattvic, Rajasic and Tamasic Gunas, which form the basic human nature. Everyone of you has the mixture of all these three Gunas and your Zodiac Sign determines which Guna is dominant in you by birth. The influence of Guna is not restricted to humans only, but it's the basic quality of Matter, which means that whatever you see outside, be it an object or organism, is thoroughly influenced by the Gunas. As sentient beings, only humans are capable of overcoming the influence from the Gunas. Everything in the Universe including you, does have the mixture of all these Gunas. Some Gunas are dominant in you by default according to your Zodiac Sign and no Guna is present in you with its absolute quality.

A) The Sattvic Quality (Sattva Guna): It's your spiritual quality. The Element of Space, mixed in your body's composition emits the Sattvic Quality. It's the pure spiritual quality you have. When you have your Sattvic Quality activated, you become free from the filtered consciousness. And you tend to improve the level of emotional intelligence. A Sattvic is generally knowledgeable, intelligent and wise. And a Sattvic always practices Love with generosity and kindness. Fostering Sattvic Guna helps your Soul get graduated into higher plains. You have the Heart & Brain Coherence and your Vibratory Frequency is resonated at its best. The Sattvic people are kind, non-violent and self- controlled by nature. They maintain silent demeanor and are focused on Mind Control and mutual respect. Anyone can improve the Sattvic Quality by effort. The Souls, born under the Zodiac Signs of Virgo, Gemini, Pisces & Sagittarius express Sattvic Quality by default. Most of the Souls under the above mentioned Zodiac Signs are Old Souls who have been qualified to be born with this Quality. The celestial bodies like The Sun, Moon, and Jupiter are considered to be Sattvic by quality. Meditation focused the Sattvic Quality, when done regularly ignites your muscle memory to make Sattvic actions from your part. Sattvic people tend to take Sattvic food items. Your Sattvic Quality can be improved by the intake of food items which maintain Sattvic energy. The Sattvic food items include fresh vegetables, fruit items, sprouts, whole grain, honey, seeds, nuts, lentils, fresh herbs, and milk and dairy products, made free from animal rennet. A Sattvic mind is spiritual in quality as it's focused on selfless service. The over focus given on this quality can make you indifferent with simulated, materialistic life.

B) The Rajasic Quality (Rajas Guna):
Actually speaking, it's your active quality which helps you achieve your passion and desire. It's your enthusiasm, interest and activity. But if you give more focus on this particular quality, you are likely to be greedy. And you become restless by nature. Rajasic people with the dominant Rajasic Quality suffer from the issues in relation to the materialistic attachment. They always want to get benefitted from their actions. In other words, the focus on Rajasic Quality leaves you selfish. And you can't differentiate between what's right and wrong. Owing to the dominance of self-interest in these individuals, they have a distorted picture of what’s right and what’s wrong. The dominant Rajasic Guna makes you more violent, selfish and impulsive. It makes you have competitive spirit with great passion. The planets Mercury and Venus are considered to be Rajasic by quality. Those who are born under the Zodiac Signs of Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn are Rajasic by nature. The Air Element of Matter emits the Rajasic Quality by default. The Element of Fire emits the mixture of both Sattvic and Rajasic Qualities. The Rajasic people are naturally fond of Rajasic food items. The Rajasic food items are fresh but heavy, which can improve the Rajasic quality in you. The Rajasic food items include the fresh non-vegetarian food items, you take like fish, meat, chicken and heavy vegetables and hot spices like garlic, chillies, onions and pepper. You are supposed to control the intake of Rajasic food items. A Rajasic mindset is self-centered by quality as it gives more importance to the sense organs.

C) The Tamasic Quality: It's your material quality which is acquired from expectations, hopes or illusions. This quality can leave you idle. Those with dominant Tamasic Quality become extremely apprehensive or cautious. They tend to seek revenge. Engulfed by cynicism and disillusionment, the Tamasic people can be extremely violent with terrorist tendencies if they give more focus on the quality. Tamasic guna also suggests disillusionment and cynicism. The Tamasics are lazy and destructive by nature. They can be extremely possesive or attached to someone or something. They do hard work only to achieve their selfish goals. And as they get a filtered vision of separation, they don't care what happens to you or your life. The Tamasic people, if left imbalanced, tend to remain away from wisdom, as a result of which they make thoughts, emotions and actions triggered out of pure ignorance. The Element of Earth emits Tamasic quality while the Element of Water produces the mixed effects of both Sattvic and Tamasic Qualities. The planets Saturn and Mars are considered to be Tamasic by quality. The Zodiac Signs of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius, have dominant Tamasic Guna by default. A Tamasic mind, as it's filled with ego and pride is lethargic and disconnected by quality. The Tamasic people tend to like Tamasic food items more. The Tamasic food items include all stale or processed food items including fish, meat, overripe or underripe fruit items or vegetables, oily food items, fermented food items like bread, cakes, pastries, vinegar, alcohol, leftovers etc. You are supposed to avoid such food items completely.

D) How to balance The Trigunas: Even though your Zodiac Sign and Elemental Composition of your body fix the imbalance of Trigunas, you are powerful enough to keep the Gunas balanced through your actual employment of consciousness and free will. You are supposed to re-order your life style. Practice food control and include more of the Sattvic food items in your diet. It's 100% necessary that you have to maintain regular exercise at least for half an hour with your heart pounding and body sweating. It's necessary that you need to practice Meditation for 5 to 15 minutes focusing on the inner visualization and reaffirmation of balancing the Gunas inside you. This is how you can reprogram your brain and moving on, it helps the brain change the neurochemistry the way you want. Lucid Dreaming can also be used with the same purpose. And follow deep breathing where you can hold the breath, taken in, for a while and get it released slowly and regular practice of which can improve your immune power with the balanced Gunas. Practice Love as much as you can, which is going to make your Vibratory Order at its best, balancing your Gunas without your knowledge.
